Recent Work - Landscape/Illustration

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is Some of my most recent work done this week. The Above image is a landscape painting I did today in Philadelphia during the last DPC meeting. This was a several hour painting done directly from the subject. Overall I was pretty happy with it, being that landscape painting is pretty much new to me. The image below is one of the Hand based illustrations I will be starting. My goal as an artists is to get into the illustration field, while still doing fine art work.
So this painting allows me to study the human hands anatomy, while allowing me to begin my illustration Portfolio. More pics are soon to come of this painting in progress.
